In this salon, Dr. MacMannis will provide a power-point presentation on factors important to the successful treatment of kids with behavior problems. Having specialized in this work for decades, he will outline an integrative approach that helps parents turn things around and set limits with kids in effective, caring ways. Topics include:

•Applying principles from brain research and the discovery of mirror neurons

•Understanding the nature of a child’s competing ”sub-selves” around behaving

•Factoring in diagnostics concerns and ADD

•Differentiating between kids who are acting out at home and/or at school

•Coaching parents in how to operate from a place of healthy detachment
